Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package bulk pork sausage
4 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1 large egg
0.5 cup Italian bread crumbs

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
Divide the pork sausage and form into 2-ounce patties. Place a hard-boiled egg in the center of each patty, then carefully press the sausage around the egg to fully encase it.
In a small bowl, whisk the raw egg. Place bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip each sausage-covered egg into the beaten egg, then roll it in the bread crumbs until fully coated. Place the coated Scotch eggs on the prepared wire rack.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 22 minutes, or until the Scotch eggs are golden brown and cooked through. Serve hot and enjoy!
